Flatiron Legal Advisors handles family law, estate planning, criminal defense, personal injury, civil litigation, real estate, and immigration matters across Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth, and the metros around them. We’re a full-service firm, so when your situation pulls in more than one direction, you’re not starting over with a new lawyer every time.
We meet clients across Texas by appointment. Every office below is staffed by our Texas team. To schedule, call 214-247-6291 or use the location link to learn more.
We’re built for the full range of legal challenges Texans face. Each of our practice areas is led by attorneys who know Texas law, Texas courts, and the quirks that come with practicing here — from East Texas oilfield injury claims to Houston probate to Hill Country real estate disputes.
Texas is a community property state, which means almost everything you and your spouse acquired during the marriage starts out as belonging to both of you. The spouse claiming something is separate has to prove it with clear and convincing evidence. Our Texas divorce attorneys handle contested and uncontested cases across the state, including high-net-worth divorces, business-owner divorces, and divorces where complex assets put real money on the table.
Custody, conservatorship, possession and access schedules, child support, and modifications. Texas courts decide these matters based on the best interest of the child, and we help you build the case that protects your relationship with your kids — through litigation when needed, through negotiation when possible.
Wills, trusts, powers of attorney, advance directives, and HIPAA releases. Texas allows independent administration when a will is properly drafted, which can save a family months of court oversight. Whether you’re a young parent setting up your first plan or a retiree updating a long-standing one, our Texas estate planning attorneys help you protect what matters and pass it on the way you intend.
Texas has one of the more flexible probate systems in the country, but community property creates complications at death that other states don’t have. We guide executors and administrators through independent and dependent administration, handle muniment of title, and litigate will contests and probate disputes when an estate is challenged.
DWI, drug charges, family violence, assault, theft, and white-collar matters. After a DWI arrest in Texas, you have fifteen days to request an ALR hearing before your license is automatically suspended. Felony charges in Texas carry sentences that other states reserve for the most severe cases. When your freedom is on the line, our Texas criminal defense lawyers mount the kind of defense that gets results.
Contract disputes, business disagreements, partnership and shareholder splits, fraud claims, construction disputes, and commercial litigation. Texas is one of the busiest commercial litigation jurisdictions in the country, and we litigate Texas matters in front of Texas judges and juries every week. We’ll tell you up front whether a case belongs in court or at the negotiating table.
Real estate transactions, title disputes, landlord-tenant matters, HOA disputes, and the kind of complications that come with practicing in a state where homestead protections, mineral rights, oil and gas leases, and contested property tax appraisals all matter. Our team handles both transactional work and litigation.
The personal-side practice areas where individual clients need a firm in their corner. Personal injury claims from car wrecks to 18-wheeler collisions to oilfield injuries and wrongful death (Texas runs on a two-year statute and a modified comparative fault rule with a 51% bar). Immigration counsel for families and employers. Debt defense and collections work that protects what you’ve built.
We won’t sell you a packaged service or hand your case to an associate. We tell you what we think, what we recommend, and what it will cost — up front.
Many legal problems don’t fit neatly into one box. A divorce can touch estate planning. A business dispute can have real-estate angles. A criminal charge can affect a custody case. Our team works across practice areas so your strategy is coherent, not siloed.
Court deadlines don’t wait. Neither does the call you get from your business partner at 9 p.m. We staff our practice so clients get answers, not voicemail.
Most of our Texas practice areas start with a complimentary case review. Tell us what’s happening, and we’ll tell you — straight — what your options are, what we’d recommend, and how we’d approach it.
